Bentley Azure  

Bentley Azure represents the pinnacle in a revered line of convertibles that stretches back to the very earliest days of the Bentley legend. The inspiration is classic, the execution is cutting-edge.

The twin-turbocharged engine of the Azure is based on the famous 6.75 litre V8 engine that provides the Arnage with such enormous reserves of power. Bentley engineers have nevertheless tailored it to yield its power in a more progressive, more refined manner, in keeping with the Azure’s restrained and elegant character. Nevertheless, with 450bhp (336kW) and a top speed of 171mph (274km/h), it will deliver outstanding performance with understated ease.


The traditional techniques of craftsmanship employed in the building of the Azure are special in many ways. Individuality of finish and flexibility of design are paramount among them. The attention to detail and the dedication to perfection are clearly evident in the final product, in the touch of every surface and the feel of every texture.

The Azure is equipped with active and passive safety systems at the highest levels of specification. Over and above those safety technologies that it shares with the Arnage, a roll-over protection system is installed behind the rear seats, deploying automatically should the car detect the risk of a roll-over.
